Before I go to bed, since I've been staring at both the justification and problem statements of my phd for hours now-- here is what I want to say plainly.
Cybersecurity has moved past the stage of interesting, and is now hanging on the edge of critical. We aren't talking about just firms that handle data, but everyone ranging from cow farms to hospitals and even casinos are now in scope with ransomware at play. That genie is out of the bottle, and it won't go back in.
This problem is compounded by an utter lack of formalism and studies into what works and why. Hell, we barely even have formal studies available into how to test... with most near all advanced studies being focused on binary analysis and reverse engineering. Security testers are getting taught the same stuff that was created lit. in 2012 and hasn't been updated since. Some of our most popular tools for testing were created in 2006, with many not being frequently updated since. We gotta grow up, and we gotta grow up fast.
